Sorry to hear about the sickness :( The game had potential, a shame you were unable to finish it :(
I have a little game play footage of me playing the game if you want to see :)

Hilarious sound! It was really cozy playing and then when you hear what it (?) was saying it got that much better! It was really addicting for such a simple game, played it for too long :P
I made a youtube video of me playing the game if you are interested :)

Cool that you made a Multiplayer game, will definitely rate as soon as I get someone to play with me :P
Me and some friends are making a indie game and starting an indie studio and we will probably be adding networking to our game soon. Did you make the whole network solution, from sending packages to NAT punch through, by yourself or did you use an existing solution like Unity networking or Photon? I looked at the source but was still a bit unsure so thought I would ask :)
Pretty funny. The game was a bit hard but I liked that you had to replay levels once you got more powerups
Another console game was also added this ludum dare, I can't remember the name but in it you also controlled a space ship but had to fight of other space ships. I think the idea is pretty unique, perhaps not as unique as I first thought :P. The game in itself is very hard which is much based on the hard input, which i suppose also is the charm. The other game had a save key to command function, perhaps that would have been good in your game also. Overall a cool idea, not really for me but I can see the appeal :)
It was fun! Only problem I had was that the graphics got a bit cluttered, it was a bit har to tell the things that damaged you, from the positive things, from the background stars. I think you should have made the bright stars in the background darker so they didn't steal focus from the fore ground.
The game was fun and quite addictive :) It was a bit hard for me, only ever managed to kill one hive before getting killed/overrun :(
I liked the graphics :P Was a somewhat fun game, but I did not understand why I won, suppose the waves was over. Felt a bit easy to win as I wanted to die to see an end screen but couldn't manage :P
As @supercrunchy said the game needs polishing. I noticed that batteries could disappear even after you had picked them up when their duration ran out. I was not sure what I could do about the enemies, were I supposed to run them over because the tesla coils (?) were unable to kill them all even if the power was maxed
The game felt very hard. Didn't manage to survive for more than 32 weeks or something, after restarting a couple of times. I liked the idea and would have loved for it to be easier in the beginning so I could have managed longer
The game have potential :) Would have loved to see it more balanced as it seemed impossible to run out of power and die
The main problem for me was that you ran out of things to do very quickly. Placed buildings in every slot and then I waited for something to happen that required my attention.
The idea is good, to only have one resource but there is to little to do in the game. Upgrades to the building would have been great!
A bit to simple for my taste. The game was fun at first but got really repetitive pretty quickly unfortunately. I think it would have added much to have two carts available so you always have things to do, it would also make it harder to find an optimal way of doing things
I liked to endless space thingy but it felt a bit like you could not really do anything special to survive for a long time. Was there any armor drops or is it impossible to gain armor? Also the leader bord did not load for me which was sad :(
A good game, was filled with action!! Didn't quite get the power up system at a first glance and it took a second play through before i understood it, but apart from me being a noob the game was fun!
I made a short video while playing this game and four other games, feel free to view it if you want :)

Very retro look and feel to the game! Loved the music too! I hadn't even heard about PICO-8 before but it seems a bit hard to work with (compared to unity or unreal) so great job doing this game with that tool :) The game in itself was fun but a bit repetitiv, the waves could be a bit shorter with more "boss fights" (like the big ship coming at the start of wave 3 or 4)
Very hard, got to the third level I think before giving up... The wall jumping was a bit hard and the acceleration and retardation of the characters speed made the movement feel a bit unresponsive
Didn't really understand what the game was about... Were you supposed to power up all the turrets to win?
Fun that it was so many mini games, was a bit to much do and repeat for my taste but great work all the same!
Sad you could only work 9 hours with it :( It feels like it needs something more, some unique game play feature, right now it feels just like a simple plat former... I was unable to collect the battery that is below the top platform without falling out of the map and dying, is the map completable?
This was a hard game! Had to think like an A* when playing it and couldn't clear it anyway... Moving through the asteroid field where perhaps a bit slow and uneventful and wouldn't have had to be so long. Apart from that the game was fun and intellectually challenging :)
I have a video of me failing multiple times if you want to see it :)

Not really in to point and click games, are oftentimes too hard for me :P The movement felt a bit slow and if you clicked multiple times, telling him to move, he would walk slower. The style was cool, like playing a ms paint game :P Like I said, not really in to point and click games so can't really tell you if it was good or not
This was the best entry I have played so far! Loved the game and I actually want to play it again to see how far I can get! Great work!!
I think I managed to light all the torches but as there was no win screen I was unsure... The mood of the game was good, felt like exploring a dark cave :) Would have loved to see more levels and some more game play elements.
I do agree with Vegevan, the controls left much to wish for
Noticed in the screen shots that there are at least 22 levels, I made it to level 12... The game was oddly addictive, tried level 12 many time with varying success before giving up. Some feedback: I couldn't seem to win with the last jump just before running out of power, it was a little frustrating having to use that last bit of power before respawning, at least after running the same level multiple times :P
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the game! I was leaning towards implementing a HUD but decided against it, both to get the feeling of stress that you never know how much light you have left, and a little because it was late and I was tired :P
This game was really fun and I was able to win one game, after playing 2 or 3 times :P It was maybe a bit hard and it felt a bit impossible at times.
I made a youtube video of me playing this game and 4 other games :)

The background music was very good! The game in itself was fun but the controls were to fast, was not easy enough to only change one lane.
